the horrible leap down to death.
The engineer went on to the sta
ton and gave the alarm, a rescuing
party Immediately rushed to the
sene of the terrible disaster, and
within few hours the dead and
wounded were all taken from the
scene. Fire broke out in one of
the cars but was almost Immediate
ly extinguished by the fire compa-
MES that had arrived on the grounds,
thus, one of the horrors of train
wrecks was checked. Those killed
outright will swell the number of
thirty and probably as many more
will die; the number that were
wounded will reach over seventy
five. The cause of the bridge Civ
ing away is unknown unless it was
in some default in the construction

A Bear Debt.

w. III. Cox. was shot at Naomi, a
small town about 10 miles North of
Dillon last Tuesday evening. Cox
was a sub-contractor on the Union
Pacific railroad and owed nearly
everybody in the country around
there and was also charged with
hiring men to work for him and
after they had worked month or
SO he would discharge them with
out pay. One of his creditors had
presented bill to him, whereupon
he, (Cox,) commen ced to abuse
the man, said he would not pay it
and pulled revolver on him: but
someone in house near shot Cox
the bullet piercing him just below
the heart, from the effect of which
he died the next day. Cox was the
builder of the Albany hotel in Den
yer but had failed and the house
was taken on mortage.

Astonishing Success.

It is the duty of every person who
have used Boschee's German Syrup
to let its wonderful qualities be
known to their friends in curing
consumption, severe coughs, Group,
asthma, pneumonia, and in fact all
throat and lung diseases. No per-
son can use it without immedia to
relief. Three doses will relieve any
case, and we consider it the duty
of all druggists to recommend it to
the poor, dying consumptive, at least
to try one bottle, as $4,000 dozen
bottles were sold last year, and no
one case where it failed was report
ed. Such medicine as the Ger
man Syrup cannot be too widely
known. Ask your druggist about
it. Sample bottles to try,
sold of 10 cents. Regular size rs
cents. Sold by all druggists and
dealers, in the United States and
Cana IA.

Hear! Heart!

A lady writes thus sensible to n
Western paper:
"Make home home and make it
one in every sense of the word.
My husband is a great smoker; he
loves to play cards, dominoes and
chess; he is at perfect liberty to
smoke in any room in the house,
and I am always ready to Join him
in the different games. I endeavor
i'll every way to be not only a help
mate, but a companion to o.him, and
the result is that I have and enjoy
his society. I cannot understand
why women will run the risk of
losing their husbands society and
love merely for the sake of satisfy
ing an over-fastidious taste. If
they do not like tobacco, did they
object to his using it during their
courtship? And If they objected
then and failed, why did they mar
ry? If men will not give up such
habits at the solicitations of their
sweethearts, it is not likely they
will be persuaded out of them by
their wives; therefore I think it un-
wise for a woman to risk her happi-
ness by quarreling with her hus-
band over venal fault, the exist
ence and extent of which she knew
and perfectly understood before
she took upon herself the duties of
wife.-TBfitish American.

Last year about this time some
poetical "cuss" wrote:
| Oh, where is the thing,
They call gentle Spring?
The season of thaw and Of zephyr!
| She is singing psalm,
In the land of the palm,
Where she kicks up her heels like hcifer.
Spring don't commence until to-
morrow evening; but the author for
this season should have changed
his verse to
We are getting the thing,
They call gentle spring,
The of thaw and high waters;
She has come from the south,
With thnw in her mouth,
And vets the girls hose to the garters.
'They are all coming to it, as will
be seen by the following extract
of speech recently delivered by
VIM. Walter Phelps before the New
England society in New York City.
VIM. Walter was lately gold bug:
"The silver men are not all right
yet, and they are very wrong to
cling still to deprecated dollar.
But because they are wrong at this
point I am not going to forget that
was wrong at the other. I admit
now, as the world does, that gold as
the only legal tender is impractical
BILE, and that the ultimate outcome
of cur currency troubles must and
will be the use Of two metals. A
silver dollar shall pass as gold
dollar, only the silver dollar must
have enough silver to be worth the
gold dollar; and that is nothing but
bi-metalism, and the stupid Wes-
tern member has brought us and
the world to that conclusion"

the name of the winner, date and

claims made in its favor are that its in
PRODUCTION costs but half that OF the
cable system, that there is less
less of force in operating the system,
that the cost for repairs is much
smaller, and that there is less danger
from il to life and limb. These are
certainly strong claims, and if they are
verified by practical experience the
conduit electrical system will appeal
decidedly to the interests OF street-car
companies. This method is to be
tested in Fulton street, New York, and
if good degree of success IS reached
there n long step will be made towards
its general introduction. Much pro-
gress, it is asserted also, has been made
towards applying electricity to the ele-
waited railroads In New York, and So
luton of the problem is confidently
Looked forward to this fall.
The substitution of some more ELI
cient means for propelling street-cars
than the slow, costly, and cruel method
now most in vogue seems certain to
come soon. Humanity, if nothing else,
ought to bring this about. The suffer
ipes Of strcet-car horses in the heat OF
summerand during the storms of winter
ought to touch the hardest heart, but
unfortunately trade does not take into
account the sufferings Of dumb beasts,
provided the balance is on the right side
Of the ledger. 1t is only by showing
that there will be a larger balance on
that side that n substitution of me-
cbanical force for horse flesh will be
made. Let us hope that that time is
near, and that by the progress in inven.
ton the symrathies of the humane will
no longer be excited by the tugging
and straining under the goad of so use
full and intelligent an animal as the
